About the role

Riverbend Head Start & Family Services in Illinois seeks a Director of Development to lead fundraising and development efforts, building donor and community relationships and generating sustainable philanthropic support. In collaboration with the Executive Director and Board, you will manage an annual development plan focused on individual giving, grants, sponsorships, and special events, while supervising a part-time PR Coordinator and coordinating with staff and partners to maximize revenue.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
